Chapter 534 Runaway Shentong Makes History Chapter 4.2k(1/2)
At the beginning of the second quarter, Shentong received a pass from the outside and shot directly without adjusting.
The moment STO made the shot, Bowen was in a panic.
Confident expression, soft wrist, elegant posture...
As a defensive expert against the opponent's ace players, Bowen knew that there was a nine-in-ten chance that the ball would hit.
Turn back now...
really!
"Uh-huh."
The ball passes through the net hollowly.
After scoring the goal, Shentong touched the red rope on his right wrist with his left hand, smiled and high-fived James, Wagner and others.
"Don't be careless, Bruce!"
Duncan, who was paralyzed but thoughtful, immediately reminded Bowen.
Shen Tong must not be allowed to fight, this is the league's scoring leader!
The score difference widened to 4 points.
Ginobili made a snake-like breakthrough to the inside, but was interfered by STO's defense. The ball hit the front of the basket and popped out. Duncan rushed out from the back row and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand!
Barkley said: "Look, this is the core player of the team. The Cavaliers' Shentong first shot coldly from outside, and then Duncan succeeded in making up a dunk under the basket. This is their best way of scoring. Now it depends on these two teams
Which star can last longer?"
Smith said: "Comparatively speaking, Tim's scoring method is closer to the basket and his scoring efficiency will be higher. If STO wants to score points with Duncan, then it will obviously have to put in more physical strength and energy."
...
The score difference narrowed to 2 points.
The Cavaliers attacked and passed the ball, and the ball was handed over to Shentong again.
Barkley said: "The Cavaliers should be more patient and look for more opportunities..."
Before he finished speaking, Shentong, who was still one step away from the three-point line, directly faced Bowen and shot a three-pointer!
Smith couldn't help blurting out: "This ball is too anxious."
"Rebound!" Bowen shouted over his shoulder.
Shentong was a little anxious when he shot the ball just now, and his feet were light and his center of gravity was not stable. This ball will not go in!
Bowen was convinced.
Duncan and Nesterovich heard this and quickly got into the penalty area to compete for rebounds.
Big Z and Gooden squeezed in as hard as they could.
Unfortunately, the slit is too small and tight, so I can't squeeze it in.
"Uh-huh."
The hollow basketball passes through the net.
The expected sound of hammering did not appear.
Bowen looked stunned.
When he found his teammates looking at him, Bowen spread his hands and shrugged, as if to say, I really didn't expect this goal to be scored.
Looking at Shentong running back, Bowen marveled at how good this guy's touch was.
...
The score difference is 5 points.
Parker relied on Wagner to throw a throw, and James made up for it in the air, and his slap bounced on the floor.
Gooden caught the ball with quick eyes and quick hands.
Originally, Gooden was going to pass the ball to Wagner, but when he saw Shentong coming over to ask for the ball, he handed the ball to Shentong.
The moment Shentong reached out for the ball, Wagner immediately retracted his hand and ran forward.
This is how the boss of the team is treated.
Slowly dribbling the ball across the frontcourt, Bowen stood outside the three-point line to defend, not daring to be careless.
Take a step down while dribbling, and use the inertia of dribbling to directly shoot a three-pointer.
Bowen did not expect that STO would go further and further away.
The ball almost touched the edge of the Spurs midfield logo!
Looking back in surprise, Shentong's ball hit the inside of the basket and bounced into the net!
This time, not only Bowen, but the entire Spurs team was stunned, including Popovich on the sidelines.
In fact, not only the Spurs, but also the Cavaliers players were stunned, including Silas on the sidelines.
In fact, even Barkley and Smith, who were commentating on the game, were shocked and speechless.
After being silent for a long time, Barkley said: "Three consecutive three-pointers, STO's outburst was a bit sudden, and it was very domineering and unreasonable."
Smith also said: "This is the first time I have seen such an expression on Bruce Bowen's face. That shocked expression seemed to say, God, who am I guarding? Who is this? I
But I have never guarded such a powerful player."
Barkley quickly smiled and said: "No, he must have seen it. Recall that at 35 seconds and 13 minutes, Tracy once made four consecutive three-pointers in front of him, including a 3+1."
...
STO's three consecutive three-pointers instantly opened the point difference to 8 points.
The Spurs called a timeout.
In front of the bench, Popovich's old habit of blowing his beard and staring was back.
"What the hell are you doing? Are you just taking a walk? Is Bruce the only one who knows how to defend? No one knows how to step forward to help defend?"
Listening to Popovich's loud complaints, both Parker and Ginobili wanted to speak out in defense.
STO's goals were all unreasonable direct outside shots. There was no defense at all. Even the next two shots were completely unexpected and unconventional shots.
Under normal circumstances, he may not be able to enter a position without being defended. Who would have thought that he would shoot from that position?
He still used a pull-up jump shot that was too late to defend.
"No matter what, stay close to Shentong and don't give him the chance to take action easily."
After saying that, Popovich also specifically called out: "Manu, Tony, you are always ready to double-team and help defend."
"yes!"
...
The timeout ended and the Spurs immediately made defensive adjustments after Shentong scored three consecutive points.
The execution ability of the Spurs players is very strong. Bowen started to press Shentong closely after serving from the Cavaliers' baseline, using all his strength to prevent Shentong from receiving the ball.
Wagner saw that Shentong was being marked too hard, so he handed the ball to the second boss to handle.
Since Bowen is guarding Shentong, James is now facing Ginobili, who is inferior to him in size and shape.
The "human tank" pushed Ginobili to the basket like a bulldozer, and then hung the Argentine for a layup, making the score 2+1!
After scoring the goal, James showed off his strong biceps.
"The Cavaliers not only have Shentong, but also me, LeBron James!"
James was a little arrogant, but the speech of the chosen one caught the Spurs' attention.
Both players in the Gentlemen's Combination need to be double-teamed, let alone when they are online.
Although James is strong and tall, he can still make sudden stops and changes of direction during the breakthrough process, and Ginobili almost staggered and fell again.
The mid-range shot after the emergency stop was a solid hit.
James stepped back with his shooting right hand raised high.
If he didn't want to continue playing, James wouldn't even be willing to take his arm back.
...
After Shentong played, it was James' turn.
The Spurs had no choice but to replace Malik Rose with Ginobili.
Only Rose can cure James.
But the Spurs miscalculated.
James took the initiative to launch an attack with the ball. When he broke through to the middle of the penalty area, he was surrounded by four Spurs!
Seeing that the four-man defense was about to form an airtight encirclement, James passed the ball to the bottom corner with quick eyes and hands.
Everyone took a closer look and saw that Shentong, which had "disappeared" for two minutes, appeared in this position while running.
